MasticationUnitmaps_M08.pdf

This file is a Mastication Unit Map document for the Triangle Uplands Mastication project, a contract opportunity issued by the State of Utah Division of Purchasing and conducted by the Wildlife Resources department. The project involves mastication treatments on pinyon/juniper-dominated vegetation across a base acreage of 1,100.3 acres with an optional additional 527.1 acres located in the Triangle Uplands in Grand County. The treatments aim to remove trees and restore the units to a mosaic pattern of varying densities with scattered untreated leave islands using bullhog-type mastication equipment. The project performance period runs from October 9th, 2026 through February 28th, 2027. No mandatory site visit will be held prior to bidding; however, prospective bidders are strongly encouraged to conduct their own site inspections to assess conditions that may affect contract costs. Failure to inspect the site will not constitute grounds for claims after contract award.

Participation in this solicitation is restricted to prequalified contractors only, and bidders must not submit if they are not on the current Pre-approved/Pre-qualified Vendor list. It is anticipated that this Invitation for Bid will result in a single contract award to the lowest cost responsive and responsible vendor. Vendors must guarantee their pricing through project completion, and no separate pricing information is detailed within the map document itself, as this file serves primarily as a geographic reference for the treatment units rather than a pricing or financial document.
